addiction.


addiction you run through my veins and consume my body with a vengeance you take over me and leave me with no control just the vision of my downfall for my temporary happiness i sober up and you leave me in order to taunt me make me believe that without you, i am weak fragile, senseless, useless so i turn to you my addiction with no desire to be set free just want to have you control me and never let me go i know you're wrong, they tell me you're wrong but i never want to be right something never hurt this good before i can't let you go i can't….. you keep me down but i just can't let go being without you is a feeling i don't want to know but i know one day i'll be set free free from the pull of your orbit and back to me without addiction
